^I usually leave mine up for a month or two.

[Jogumpie]

I started construction on Speed o' Fear a few months ago, so when it was completed I wanted to get rid of it quite fast.

There are more updates to come, but I just took the whole coaster apart and after some cleaning I will be ready to start Sagittarius.

[Jogumpie]

Time for another update! Although I already reveiled what I'm doing.




They just keep on adding these large supports.



Here comes the first drop!!



We're almost out of supports...



More track!



Looks like that piece is going to be installed right before the brake run.



I guess this one is for a highly banked turn.



Here comes another piece of track.



And another support column.



Not much track anymore.



And this piece will complete the highly banked turn.




And that's it for now! Next update will be the last one!!

people, from what I understand, he IS NOT building the thing all over again. he took pictures of the dismantling of Speed o' Fear and is now showing them to us in reverse. we all also knew it was Speed o' Fear all along. I am not stupid.

[Jogumpie]

Last update! After this, it's time to announce something about Sagittarius...




Lowest point right after the first drop.



Looks like the track will ascend here very much.



This column needs lateral support.



Much progress since last picture!



Can you say overbanked turn??



Lovely little support hanging in mid-air...



What's that?..



Track!!



We're almost there...



That's nice!



Must be a heavy load.



Going down again.



Last piece of track!



Yes! You can do this, Mr. Crane!



It fits. Speed o' Fear's track has been completed.



The tubing has been placed and the first train is being put on the track.



And here goes the second train.




Thanks for showing your interest in Speed o' Fear. It has been taken apart completely right now and the time has come for Sagittarius.

Ooooh can't wait for Sagittarius!
When are you going to start work on it?

[Maxlaam]

I loved this coaster this is also the first coaster of Jogumpie I saw being constructed form the beginning! Sagitarius must going to be perfect!

[Jogumpie]

As I said in Sagi's topic, Speed o' Fear may be rebuilt. The guy who organizes the exposition didn't decline when I told him Speed o' Fear is 15 feet long and 9 feet wide. He said it would be quite big though. Tomorrow I will show him my plans.


Come to daddy, 270 bucks.

[Maxlaam]

I hope he will let you have enough space for it...
Hey can I help rebuilding it when you are going to rebuild it?

Woot 80 posts! I'm nearing the 100!

[Garth]

$270? Lucky!!
I hope you get to rebuild it.

[Chubs33]

I am amazed how you get all these sweet hook ups. What do they do? Call you or something?

[Jogumpie]

I don't know how, but they always seem to find me.

It's official, Speed o' Fear is going to be rebuilt. Max, you can help me if you want. I will first have to take down Sagittarius.

[Maxlaam]

Woot I can help the master whit his coaster ohhhh. What credit am I gonna get then? how much from the 270? LOL Just Kidding.
Hey, Friends will do it for free!

[RCT2123]

Lol, taking all those pics of construction is going to help you so much. That is pretty ironic. The first time you do something like this, it is going to help more then ever. I am looking forward to seeing if you can pull this off, and have it looks as good as the first one. I don't think anyone has ever done something like this...

Well today is was at Gump's house to help building SoF and deconstruct Saggitarius (gees took us nearly 1.30 hours only to deconstruct the launch and the 0-G!).
Even whit a clear picture it took some time to figure out how evrything was... And you never bet how small his room actualy is! it is verry small! I never thought SoF ever fitted in there!

I build some footers and gump did some work at the overbank. We didn't realy do much on it, I thought we could have done more but yes, time was running fast because I had a realy nice time there. His family is so polite (Just like his G/f who came a little later)

I was there mid-day and his room is at the attic right in the middle of the sun. So hot!

Can't wait till next time! (next weekend gump? xD)

[fastman xc]

wow, you are having fun with this, eh?

[Jogumpie]

Ah well, we didn't do that much today. As Max said, my room is in the attic and it's on the Eastern side of the house. It wasn't exactly hot, but it sure was humid.
I'll try to get some work done on the overbank tomorrow, but I may just be lazy and waste my time doing nothing.

[Maxlaam]

^^ I real have fun whit Gump he has a funny sense of humour

^Waste your time and i'll come again to help xD

[Jogumpie]

This is what Speed o' Fear currently looks like.
